i dont think anyone should be appointed until the summer. whats the point of it? throwing random names into the ring so everyone can jump on a bandwagon, (seems to be jewel and big sam atm) is pointless. lets just get thru the season and do what we never have in the past - think about who are the best possible people for the job, draw up a shortlist, and then see about availability, hire them, and say here you go, take us forward rather than blunder straight into the next managerial disaster awaiting.

which will surely happen as it has for years now if we hire before then!

We won't turn to a european chasing team overnight, but the doom and gloom Souness spread as well as the apalling lack of tactics and sacking the extremely poor back room staff can only be good for the club. If they can add Beardsley to the first team coaching staff we have time to save our season i.e. avoid relegation which we wouldn't have with Souness and have a good cup run.

well it was only matter of time ,but did u notice he would not resign guess the small matter of a 3 million pay off had something to do with that .now we will see who is man enough to fight for this club and not just for the money.did u hear the nominations for the oscars this yr have the first team up for best acting award for pretending to be prem footballers freddy get it right this time please

do you really think sacking the manager will change anything?Do you think the next manager will be as good as the last?As a man u fan I can understand the feeling between fans for under achieving but this has gone on for years. How many managers has it been now?

Souness is probably best of out of it after all he'll have a fat compensation cheque on the way. hopefully he won't have to fight for it like Sir Bobby had to do.Shouldn't Shepherd now be considering his position too???? How many managers has he hired now......and fired of course. Speaks volumes for his judgement don't you think. Were NUFC a normal commercial business the board and shareholders would have had him out long before now.
